Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
He was nothin'
[Verse 2]
Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean
Going nowhere
[Verse 3]
Daddy was ashamed
Daddy was ashamed
Daddy was ashamed
He was somethin'
[Verse 4]
Disgrace the family name
Disgrace the family name
The family name
He was somethin'
[Verse 5]
He was born for your crew
I've got nothin' left to prove
If I die before I wake
Hope I don't come back a slave
[Verse 6]
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
He was nothin'
[Verse 7]
Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean
Going nowhere
[Verse 8]
Daddy was ashamed
Daddy was ashamed
He was ashamed
He was nothin'
[Verse 9]
Disgrace the family name
Disgrace the family name
Family name
Going nowhere
[Verse 10]
Leave this one for your brew
I've got nothin' left to prove
If I die before I wake
Hope I don't come back a slave
Ay, yeah
[Verse 11]
Leave this one for your brew
I've got nothin' left to prove
If I die before I wake
Hope I don't come back again
I'm dyin'
[Verse 12]
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
Yeah, yeah
Even in his youth
Even in his youth
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 13]
Even in his youth
Yeah, yeah
Even in his youth
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
